WW, it was great to have finally had a chance to speak with you today! I know that the more practised and better tongues that were at the offline will be able to write notes on this (I did not even take any, completely deferring to their superior skills and experience!!....btw, my wife and I had a great time!).

I loved this wine! Of all the wines that were opened before we had to leave (more later), this was my favourite, and that was with KC's '87 Guigal Hermitage beside it!!! It became incredible with more air! I let it sit in my glass for only 30 minutes and what a whopper!! Loved it and thank you very much for the sharing!!
